An Irish Paralympic Athlete's found himself in the middle of a row over his service dog, at a holiday resort in Longford.

The pet friendly CenterParcs facility allows a maximum of two pets in a chalet and they offered accommodation to Padraig Moran's service dog - or his family's pets - but not both.

Padraig says he feels he's been discriminated against - after being forced to choose between his working dog Gail, and his family.

After hours of negotiation, Gail was allowed in - but the families' two pets were then refused, forcing them to split up and take some of their animals away.

Padraig says common sense has NOT prevailed, and he's highlighting the row to prevent others from having the same experience.
